Mantle clock with birch plywood

I could see that selling at Crate and Barrel for a couple hundred. Looks awesome!

Wow!!! Really, it’s selling with same design?
I really did not copy from anywhere anyone.
Maybe all plywood goods end up with like this one,
make surfce by stacking up.

I think you missed the “could” in hodgepodge’s comment – He means your design has the sort of modern deco look that you can find in some pricey home decor shops. I’ve certainly never seen anything done in that way, and I agree it looks awesome. Great way to use up some scraps of plywood too!

How did you finish the face (which is all plywood “edges”)?

Yes, I missed ‘could’. lol
Thanks a lot.
I always save wood pieces as long as it’s bigger than my hand, so
it accumulates real fast. It’s a good way of reducing the height
of wood files that occupy all four corners of my smal shop.

Great Idea Ryan

I really like this design. Very unique. Have you considered making a picture frame out of the same style? I think it would look great. Nice work Ryan.

Haha, ok sorry about the confusion.chodgson I couldn’t of said it better.

Ryan -
The clock is wonderful and as others have commented, looks very sellable if you so wish.
I also looked at your other projects – very nice sense of design – simple and elegant.
All the clocks have a great look to them –
even the little one shown near the plywood clock.
Looking forward to seeing your next projects.

Hi Terry
the small one is made of wenge.
It’s my best favored clock, so don’t sell or give it to others.
Thank you for looking.

Thank you for giving me an idea of next project.
Picture frame would be a real good match with plywood.
Thank you again.

Great design and well done.

Dude, I’m happy somebody besides me recognizes the beauty of good ole plywood.
I’ve made several things from plywood and when it’s sanded and has a finish, NOBODY knew it was plywood.
This looks super – mind if I steal the idea?

I know that well finished plywood shows much better quality work
people normally think of. This is one of my try and it looks good to
me too. Feel free to take the idea. Hope you make really nice clock.
Thank you.
